Yesterday (Saturday) Carrie & I went to Trader Joe's first thing in the morning to do our grocery shopping. We stopped off at the Great Harvest Bread Co. next door and bought some jalepeno cornbread which is most ecksellent.
Carrie made tuna melts on said cornbread for lunch. While we were eating we got a call from her folks asking us if we wanted to come down to Katie Downs and join them at 2:00. Well, me and Carrie, we looked at each other. And we each said, "Okay."
So we went down there and had a couple of beers and played a few games of Skip-Bo (I won one) and ate some onion rings. From there we headed straight to Target where Carrie bought a glass jar with which she could make sun tea, and I bought a watering can with which I could water flowers and such.
We got home and relaxed for just a bit. Then I got ready for Fools Play by showering and shaving (not, however, in that order) and eating another one of them tuna melts that was leftover from lunch.
I remembered to bring the box office stuff down, but apparently remembering that stuff made me forget to bring down my purple shirt! How embarrassing!
The show was "Meter," using that old meter that Carrie made years and years ago. It's a fun format, and it was a pretty good show. Taisha was there, too! In one scene I got to play K.I.T.T.'s voice to my brother's Hasselhoff. I didn't even try to impersonate William Daniels's voice; I just talked like normal. During the scene we were racing against a motorcycle, and it was kind of a sawdust race. I kept on saying things like, "Michael, they're getting ahead of us." At one point I said, "Michael, I have to go to the bathroom."
Michael Knight: "What? KITT, you don't have to go to the bathroom, you're a car!"
KITT: "Please pull over, Michael. I really have to go."
Michael Knight: "No! We'll lose the race!"
KITT: "Michael, I'm pulling myself over."
I then made a "peeing" noise.
'Twas funny, 'twas. A lot of people from Mike's & Geoff's office came down (other than Jason), but for some reason three of them thought it would be a good idea to get drunk before the show. So they were kind of a handful. Well, the one woman was kind of a handful.
Afterwards about 10-12 of us went out to the Rib Eye. I sat with Sandy, Mike, and an audience member whose name I don't know how to spell but is pronounced Shoo'-vee (rhymes with juvi, as in juvenile hall). She first saw the show when she was thirteen years old. She's a senior in high school now.
I'm an old man.
I had a hot roast beef sammitch drenched in brown gravy. I also ate some of Sandy's steak when she couldn't finish it.
As I was leaving the Rib Eye there was a rockin' house party going on across the street with a live basement band and people hanging out on the lawn drinking beers and everything. It was pretty funny.
But I didn't tarry further; I drove straight home to Carrie.
